Whiskey is often drank by men. Women can’t always appreciate the strong taste and mostly they mix it with other drinks to make it softer.
But this particular whiskey, Deans, is especially mild and not only meant for the rugged guys.
This is proved by the print ad who shows a Scotsman whose skirt is blown up by a passing subway train. Now I wonder where he got that pose from?

A very good example of the endless possibilities of advertising at a bus stop. A couple of weeks ago we published a compilation of the most creative bus stop advertisements. This ad proves advertisers still manage to find new and innovative ways to use these bus stops. The only concerning thing about this campaign is the destructive effect, won’t it ruin some people’s clothes? It’s a risky idea, but really creative!

In Sleepwalker, a sleeping man rises and goes on a sleepwalking safari across the African savanna. Pulled subconsciously by his thirst, he shows its worth braving the teeth, trunks and jaws of the African night to enjoy an ice-cold Coke.

It has such positive reactions that Barclaycard and their agency BBH decided to create a new one..
The video beneath shows one man’s liberating commute to the office on a rollercoaster that winds through New York. Imagine..
